"B = Switch players (after snap. It's the "A" button before the snap)"


That is the only thing so far that bothers me about the demo, I wish it would either be A or B and just stay that way. Hopefully in the retail version of the game we will have different options/etc.

I have an idea why VC did this. Even with someone like me being a 2K vet will sometimes hit the "A" to cycle through my players on defense. More times than not it's while defending against the hurry-up offense. I'm usually hitting the "A" button thinking I'm cycling through players (with the "B" button) when in fact I hurried my defense to the line of scrimmage. Then I would hit the button again cause my defender to go offsides. Sure it's the "B" button but I noticed I did it a few times. I'm sure that's one of the reasons but that's only my theory.

They made it like that in 2K2... in 2K3 (at least for the PS2 version), if you kept tapping X, your guy wouldn't burst like that until after the QB hiked the ball, so I still don't know why they did this.

I know one thing I've been really using the right analog stick a lot lately and it's really good in the open field during punt and kick returns. I barely use the regular buttons anymore. I've been shaking people out of their boots on returns.

Oh Yeah for all the new guys who may not know but You call timeouts by hitting the "SELECT" button. It's always been like that (Xbox version) but you always had a choice between pausing the game or hitting the select button. I'm sure VC did that to the demo to let people know the Select button was used to call timeouts.
